No One's Wife

There is an invisible link

When your hands are bound

A tether on another plain

A tie that binds your very souls together

It is how it was always meant to be done

Not because we are inherently monogamous

Not because love never fades

But because all life is precious

And everyone deserves to have a witness to their life

A partner to walk the Earth with

Don't pick for perfection

It doesn't exists

Don't pick for lust

Your brain will stop making hormones

Don't pick for security

Nothing in this life is certain

Find the one that fits

And if the road gets too rough

And he lets go of the cord

The bond remains

And now she is no one's wife

Until he returns.
